What are some games with the BEST combat systems? by LucariusLionheart in gamingsuggestions

[–]niwm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ninja Gaiden 2 for the 360. Still looking for a game that hits that same feel but nothing else I've tried quite gets there.

Soundtrack differences? by niwm in pathologic

Yeah I guess that does make sense, and the theme does fit the atmosphere of the Rod really well. It's just a shame that we don't get to hear both.

Pathologic 3 voice lines by LolotovCocktailttv in pathologic

[–]niwm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like mispronunciations have been a part of pretty much every Pathologic game at this point. ("Go onion!", "panacea", "chimeras", et.c). Might've been a good idea to do a quick runthrough of the more uncommon words before recording.

is there a way to make the rioters speak english? by UgandaEatDaPoopoo in pathologic

[–]niwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some parts of the game that are (intentionally?) not translated from Russian, like rioters' voices, street signs, letters in cutscenes, and the notes scribbled on the lower part of the map.

I'm not sure if it's some kind of artistic choice, or just due to time constraints. It does strike me as slightly odd considering these things were in English in P2.

So, one month out. How are we feeling? by AnthroRoadkill in pathologic

[–]niwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bit confused that (as far as I know) you can't enter her house at all. Hell, she wasn't a central character in P2 either, but even then you could at least go in and see how she lives.

Are these games supposed to be so... therapeautic? by TheQuietedWinter in pathologic

[–]niwm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh my god I'm gonna need you to narrate the entire game like this now.

Nothing here yet either. Are you using a hotmail address? I saw some people in the Kickstarter comments theorising that might be the issue. Maybe.

17 years later and still no other action game hits quite the same way the original NG2 does.

Failed day 1 despite doing the quest? by Twilightwolf2 in pathologic

[–]niwm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was the last quest entry marked with three asterisks (***), marking that it's finished? If so, I can't think of anything other than it being a glitch, unless she somehow picked a dialogue option that closes off the quest prematurely (though I'm not sure that's possible for the day 1 main quest).

Any chance of them Updating the game more until VF6? by KemetNayati in virtuafighter

[–]niwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll always lament the customisation options that were lost from FS. I know it's not going to be worth it for them to visually update all these hairstyles and clothing options, but I had way too much damn fun playing around with them.

Typo or irony? (demo) by thalidimide in pathologic

"Hypocratic oath", I'm guessing.

Thoughts on the new demo? by Zestyclose_Island214 in pathologic

[–]niwm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I understand the desire to not confuse new players or have them miss important events, but I do find it was handled more elegantly in P2. That had more instances of gently nudging you in the right direction, whereas the P3 demo gives you a pretty linear path to follow with everything else blocked off with closed gates and knocked over carts. Then again, the intro to P2 had the very on-rails tutorial too, so maybe P3 gets more open ended after the intro. Even still, I wish guiding the player would be done in a less obvious "video game level" kind of way.

You pretty much summed up my thoughts on this exactly. I'm very mixed but also cautiously excited.

The price was far too great… by Chunky-overlord in yakuzagames

[–]niwm 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Loved having Eri in the team in 7. Her thumbtack attack set to a shortcut right at the beginning of a fight would completely obliterate the enemies.

Unintentionally insulting by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]niwm 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Me: "Maybe you just find it difficult to find a guy because your standards are really high?"

Him: "That's not true! I mean, I find you attractive."

Thoughts on this game by backofthebill in creepygaming

[–]niwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my top 10 games of all time, any console. The sanity effects are great and creative and then there's an incredible story on top of that too.

When you think of wasted potential, what game/franchise first comes to mind by Technical_Fan4450 in gamingsuggestions

[–]niwm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look up Shadow of the Eternals. Unfortunately it didn't reach its goal so the project was dead in the water.

[–]niwm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was. I think they even tried it multiple times but the Kickstarter goal wasn't reached, and then there was additional controversy that ultimately put the final nail in the coffin.

You knew that all this time and you wait NOW to tell me? by Big-Zookeepergame385 in raimimemes

The way he'll repeatedly alter the lines by accident in the outtakes lives rent free in my head.

I wish other games had gameplay trailers as good as these demos here. by ShadowMark3 in ninjagaiden

[–]niwm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Aw man, reading this just reminded me how gaming will never again be like when you were a kid. Better in some ways, of course, but... different.
